Assemblies on Pulmonary Rehabilitation; Respiratory Structure and Function 8:00 a.m. - 4:00 p.m. KBHCCD Room C144-C145 (Level 1) Target Audience Current and future directors of cardiopulmonary exercise testing labs or pulmonary rehabilitation programs, attending physicians, exercise physiologists, respiratory therapists, trainees, fellows, and other interested health care providers Objectives At the conclusion of this session, the participant will be able to: • understand the physiologic principles underlying cardiopulmonary function, muscle function and physical activity in cardiopulmonary diseases; • apply and put into practice assessments of cardiopulmonary function, limb and respiratory muscle function and physical activity in cardiopulmonary diseases; • interpret assessments of cardiopulmonary function, muscle function and physical activity in cardiopulmonary diseases, and use this information to inform diagnosis, prognosis and target therapy. Dyspnea on exertion and exercise intolerance are major complaints of patients with chronic lung disease. This session will cover three patient assessments that are not tested by resting pulmonary function testing: cardiopulmonary exercise testing (CPET); muscle strength; physical activity and function. The session will combine didactic lectures, a live CPET demonstration and case-based small group discussion. The session is distinct and complementary to the PG course on pulmonary function: delegates are encouraged to attend both to maximize learning opportunities. We will use a team approach to facilitate group discussions, including content experts and CPET/pulmonary rehabilitation medical directors from around the world. Chairing: H.B.
